Topic: Hell on Wheels

Hell on Wheels tells the epic story of post-Civil War America, focusing on a Confederate soldier (Mount) who sets out to exact revenge on the Union soldiers who have killed his wife. His journey takes him west to Hell on Wheels, a dangerous, raucous, lawless melting pot of a town that travels with and services the construction of the first transcontinental railroad, an engineering feat unprecedented for its time.

Anybody? I don't really liked westerns but I hear it's not quite western.

I don't see the Boardwalk Empire comparison, sorry!

Cullen Bohannon seems to be a quite the bad ass and for that is enough for me to tune in again next week. It wasn't awesome but definately good, too early to say anything else as we were only just introduced to the characters.

Re: Hell on Wheels

I'm loving this show.... I WANT MORE!!!

At the start i thought it was gonna be some supernatural thing but it's really all about some atrocities that happened during the war. I wasn't too sure about the cast at the beginning... cause it's freak'n CHIEF O'Brian. I'm not used to seeing him unless he's on a bridge of a starship... but him ... Common and the lead actor is easily making it a must watch tv show ;-)

Gunslinger getting payback with some inspiring dialogue in it and the time setting , I am hooked!Would've liked to see the cheyenne or any indian in a more peaceful matter seeing as they were kind of the victim, but i guess the white man has gone to far by that time.The way he got his vision is that right? Did they actually check the ways and rituals? probly not, its tv.And is this before the battle of lil bighorn? Or after? cause my history on america sucksEDIT: Seems like it was before, oh epic battle ahead idd, excellent. :> :>
